Hi,
First of all I am a total noob in rooting Android. I have just bought a used Prime which has not the original software but the Cyanogenmod 9.
I would like to revert to original Asus software so as to have my google apps (play etc). Is this possible and if yes how?
thank you in advance

Check and see if you have clockworkmod folder on internal if that is there then check the backup folder and see if there is anything in there... Now I wouldn't suggest going back to the backup but you can download Virtuous rom which is close to stock and install it instead
If its just the Google apps you need then just flash a gapps package in clockwork mod, which is probably already installed if you have cm9
My problem is not only I lost all the Asus software (eg Polaris Office), but also he ability to install everything through the google play. My device is not recognized in the play web site and I have to install first the google apps!

thx for the reply first of all!
Is not possible to just download the firmwares from the Asus site and install them?
If yes how can I do this?
Flashing stock rom from asus will result in unrecoverable brick. However you can flash this if you want to get as close to stock as possible you can flash this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1674827

Download this zip file(Almost stock) [dl dropbox com/u/27023946/AlmostStock_9.4.2.21.zip"] to your internal SD-card preferably in the Download folder.
Then go to your ClockWork Mod recovery or TWRP recovery. Wipe Dalvik cache and Factory Reset and then Install zip from SD-card. Choose the zip you placed in the download folder and click yes.
After a while you can Reboot to System. That's it! Good as new.
Hi,
thank you for all the replies.
I see u have suggested two roms:
1) AlmostStock_9.4.2.21.zip
2) AndroWook Prime Stock Rooted ICS 9.4.2.21
Any reason to prefer the one over the other?
Regards

So you're not stuck in a bootloop, but it boots recovery every time you restart? I can send you a .zip to flash that will get you out of the bootloop - can you push files to the internal sd card?
You bought this used? Whoever sold it to you really should have flashed gApps along with CM9, if you can't get it to work, I would contact him/her and ask to have it fixed if you can't do it yourself. That's a pretty bad way to sell a used product! Sorry, good luck.

Thanks joseky for ur reply, im experiencing one problem tho, i have just flashed cm9 stable to my galaxy s2 and i must admit i am pretty happy with it. However, lots of apps seem to be missing (like google play for example, i cant download any app)
any idea what could be going wrong ?
Oh and before i installed cm9 i wiped data/factory reset, i cant see any of my old applications now, but i can still see folders on my internal sd card that are called whatsapp, 9 gag, etc.
what should i do to remove ALL apps and start installing them from scratch ?

You were suppose to download and flash Gapps.
Visit CM9 thread again, you need to download Gapps (Google apps)
1. Download Gapps,
2. Boot to CWM recovery
3. Flash Gapps
4. Reboot phone
Problem solved!

## be very careful, some of the folders contain very important things from your previous activities.
1. Your download folder contains all your downloads from your browser
2. Your whatsapp folder contains your chat history
Etc.
Before you wipe your internal SD, I'll advise you to backup the ones you feel are important.
## To format your internal storage, follow these steps:
- Goto Settings - Storage,
- under your internal storage (size = 11.49G), Select ERASE SD
- confirm your action.

Great, I erased my sd card and problem solved, flashed gapps and got everything ...
Some questions which have nothing to do with this:
1) How can i get touch recovery ? just open up rom manager and tap "flash clockwork mod recovery touch"? or is there another better way to do this ?
2) Is there any way so that when i get a SMS or a missed call, something will notify me on the screen that i have a new sms or missed call ? (i had this on stock ics, but when i flashed cm9 it just dissappeared.). Reason i need this: Sometimes i dont hear my ringtone and it is kind of annoying to have to unlock and bring down the notification bar just to check if i have something new.

1. Never use ROM manager on your phone. In fact, Disable or Remove the app at once. It is a very risky app, which has led to brick on many Galaxy S2 already.
# If you want touch recovery, you can flash Siyah kernel, Dorimanx kernel or Dream kernel. they all come with touch recovery.
2. Use a third party launcher. The default launcher (Trebuchet) lack this feature.
Holo launcher HD, Apex launcher Nova launcher, Go launcher EX, etc all have this function implemented

You may use that. It should work fine but I must tell you that I've never used that method before. I always use custom kernels
2.a. that's because the launcher in development by the CM team.
b. If you are looking for Samsung keyboard, You can't have. Sorry about that but there are better keyboard apps in the market with some of them having the option to change the theme to the Samsung keyboard style.

No... Installing a new ROM doesn't wipe apps automatically... You must do a factory reset to wipe apps...

Just so you know, "update from zip" will look for a zip named "update.zip" on your sdcard and then install it, an update.zip is typically just a patch that only contains changes and it isn't used very much anymore. If the zip is named something else then use "install zip from sdcard"

No it does not.
<•invisiblek> would need f2fs-support in the boot.img's fstab
<•invisiblek> and if recovery thought it'd be a good idea to re-write that, you're going to end up with an un-bumped boot.img
its in his long term plan but its not there right now.

also i'm in the process of building/uploading a new version (6.58.9.1) which supports the cm updater, expect those to start rolling in shortly

Great news. You are the real hero behind the scenes. Your work for our device is much appreciated mate thank you. We wouldn't have all those unofficial roms to play with until you make something official for us. it is very close I believe.

Well, tried on my D850 and installed and ran fine, but 2 issues:
1. Can't mount external SD (SanDisk 64Gb in FAT32 but soon going back to ExFat), the path for it is incorrect and no option to change it
2. Installed a Zip file that replaced the kernel and even though it said all went ok it was never installed
Had to flash back the TWRP recovery (even though that one can't read my external_SD either no matter the format) so I can flash the new kernel properly.
Waiting for your next release to test it out.

DualBootPatcher
A big thanks to @chenxiaolong for originally creating this wonderful utility.
What is dual booting?
It is like having 2 ROMs installed at once, and you can switch to other ROM without flashing it all over again, your data, stuff everything is preserved.
How to use the patcher?
A quote from the author himself:
Android
Download the patcher apk and run it. Tap "Patch Zip File" from the navigation drawer and choose the file you want to patch.
Windows (GUI)
Double click DualBootPatcher.exe and choose the file you want to patch.
--------
After patching the zip file, a new file, like some_rom_dual.zip file will be created. For example, patching ktoonsez's
KT-SGS4-JB4.3-AOSP-TMO-08.28.2013.zip
would create a new
KT-SGS4-JB4.3-AOSP-TMO-08.28.2013_dual.zip
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
For now we dont have Windows executable, so only prefer to use the android app.
How to dual boot?
Before doing anything, download the Dual Boot Patcher app and the DualBootUtilities.zip from the download section below.
The patcher offers several locations for installing ROMs:
Primary: This is normally used for installing a zip to the primary ROM. It is not required, but is strongly recommended because it has code to prevent the zip from inadvertently affecting other ROMs.
Dual: Dual/Secondary is the first multiboot installation location. It installs to the system partition. This is a good spot for installing a second ROM because it doesn't take any space away from the internal storage.
Multi-slots: There are 3 multislots: multi-slot-1, multi-slot-2, multi-slot-3. These install to the cache partition. This is specifically for devices, like the Galaxy S4, that have a massive cache partition.
Data-slots: There can be an unlimited number of data slots. These install to the data partition and eat up space on the internal storage. This is useful for devices where the system partition is nearly full and the cache partition is tiny. These slots are named "data-slot-[id]", where "id" is something you provide in the app.
With that said, let's get to the "how to"!
First, boot into your primary ROM and install the Dual Boot Patcher app
Open the app and go to "Roms" in the navigation drawer. It will ask if you want to set the kernel. Make sure that you do.
Go to "Patch zip file" in the navigation drawer and patch the ROM or zip you want to install. You can select one of the installation locations described above.
There are two ways of flashing the patched zip file. You can either flash it normally from recovery or flash it using the in-app flashing feature. Both methods are explained below.
Flashing from recovery
To flash from recovery, just flash the patched zip file like you would for any other zip. Nice and simple.
In-app flashing
To use in-app flashing, go to "Roms" in the navigation drawer, tap the floating button on the bottom right, and add the zips you want to install. You can queue multiple zips and they will all be flashed in one go. Once you've added all the zips you want to flash, click the check mark in the action bar and they will be flashed right away.
A normal backup from recovery will backup every ROM. If you would like to back up ROMs individually, please see @rlorange's awesome tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2491299

App and data sharing?
DualBootPatcher very recently got support for sharing apps and their data across ROMs. Maybe sharing is somewhat of a misleading term. The feature actually makes Android load the shared apps and data from a centralized location, /data/multiboot/_appsharing. So you're not sharing apps from one ROM to another per se. The ROMs are just loading the apps from one shared location. Let me make this clearer with an analogy.
Think of the people in a company office as ROMs. You want to share with your coworkers some documents (apps). Instead of telling them to come over to your desk to see those documents (sharing apps from one ROM to another), everyone goes to the conference room to look at the documents together (loading apps from a shared location). That's how app and data sharing is implemented.
To use app sharing, follow these steps in every ROM that you want to use app sharing:
Install the app you want to share
Open DualBootPatcher and go to "App Sharing" in the navigation drawer
Enable individual app sharing
Tap "Manage shared applications" and enable APK/data sharing for the app
Reboot
When you uninstall an app that's shared, it simply become unshared for the current ROM. That way, other ROMs are not affected. To continue the analogy above, if you quit your job, you won't shred the documents that everybody else was looking at.
If you unshare an app's data, it will go back to using the data it had before it was shared. In other words, you leave the conference room and go back to work on your own documents at your desk.
(Hope my analogy didn't suck too much )

Click to collapse
How do I?
Switch the ROM if something doesn't work properly?
You can flash the DualBootUtilities zip from recovery. It will provide a menu interface that allows switching to the various ROMs.
If you have TWRP, you can also switch manually by tapping Install -> Images (bottom right) -> Go to /sdcard/MultiBoot/[Your ROM]/ -> flash boot.img.
Wipe /cache, /data, /system, or dalvik-cache?
The easiest way is to do it from the app while booted in another ROM. Just go to "Roms" in the navigation drawer, tap the 3 dots options menu for the ROM you want to wipe, and tap "Wipe ROM".
Alternatively, flash the DualBootUtilities zip from recovery, which will also allow you to wipe a ROM.
NOTE: Don't use the recovery's built-in wiping abilities as that may delete non-primary ROMs!
Update the primary ROM?
Patch the zip for primary and flash it. The "primary" installation target is designed so that other ROMs won't be affected when you want to flash something for the primary ROM.
Update a non-primary ROM?
Patch and flash the zip exactly like how you did it the first time.
Flash a mod or custom kernel for the primary ROM?
Patch it for primary before flashing. If the zip does not wipe /cache, it is also safe to flash it directly.
Flash a mod or custom kernel for a non-primary ROM?
Just patch and flash it

Just in case, if the app does not work, use the DualBootUtilities.zip from recovery to switch.

Info about partitions
Our system partition is large enough to hold both CM10.1 and CM11.
I am currently using CM11 as primary and CM10.1 as secondary ROM.
In any case, one of the ROMs is stock, you may want to install the other on some other partitions.
It is recommended to use stock as primary.
If you are installing any ROM on ext-sdcard, you would need a fast sdcard.

Just in one day you did it ! you're GREAT corphish !
At all can the system partition hold both of cm12.1 and JB4.1 ? also what about kernel ? will the both of them use the same one or each one uses its individual one ?
This will save a lot of time for me when I want to test cm12.1 as I have to flashed it then restore the one I use :crying:
thanks @corphish

Just in one day you did it ! you're GREAT corphish !
At all can the system partition hold both of cm12.1 and JB4.1 ? also what about kernel ? will the both of them use the same one or each one uses its individual one ?
This will save a lot of time for me when I want to test cm12.1 as I have to flashed it then restore the one I use :crying:

You will have to check how much space is left in system when on stock. Then calculate accordingly.
And kernel used is different for different ROMs.

App works perfectly fine on kitkat. But not in jb because it is not able to load libs, I will have a look on it.

That moment, when u helped me to remember about somebody who tried to make multi-boot supporting kernel for gts5282.
And we have the thing now.

Help me plzzzz..........
I am using gts5282 resurrection remix marshmallow custom ROM and I want dual boot but my kernel is not supported and in the previous link of gts5282 in which the developer has given a link of kernel which supports dual boot. This is the link- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2733137.
But the download link was expired so I kindly request you guys who downloaded that kernel to please update that link or just upload that kernel in this blog so that I can flash that kernel . And MY device will also be dual boot supported .Your help will be appreciated :good: .
